I'm home - when do I leave?

Arrival at Heathrow - first time I got a good view of 2 aerobridges getting ready to attach to the plane

My entry into London wasn't the most dramatic or anything, other than I slept very well and was totally ready for a recharge. The arrivals lounge was nearly closing when I went but begged them to stay open enough for me to shower. Fortunately, even though my SEA-LHR and LHR-VIE were on two separate PNRs, the BA desk at SEA were kind enough to check my luggage through to VIE.

I hopped on the Pic Line and alighted at Pic Circus. Felt so odd NOT to alight at Earl's Court as I'm normally used to! I wandered around that area, popped into Superdry for a bit, had an awful chocolate shake at Godiva's and headed back to LHR, this time to T3. Picked up my boarding card and headed to the AA lounge which was infinitely better than the BA one. Our flight to VIE was a mile away from the lounge, and was full. The flight pushed back on time and it was smooth sailing from here on.
